Analysis of Tears lie in my bed



There is so much to say, where do I begin
To start off saying betrayal is a sin
I try and lay down and bury my head
And then tears fall down and lie in my hand

I know I wasn’t exactly so good
I should have shown you more love as a good man should
But as they say for good and for bad
I didn’t know it would leave me lonely and sad
So as you see how my heart has bled
The tears fall down and lie in my bed

When it came down for me to depart
My life seem to end as well as my heart
I miss my family and my home too
Now all I have is memories of you
Everything is going to be said and done
I open the curtain and feel the sun
I think to myself how I was mislead
Then the tears fall down and lie in my bed

I am trying to go on with my life as you see
I have not found yet someone who loves me for me.
